Château d'Otrange
Highlight • Castle
The descendants of Berthold-Louis de Libert sold the property at the beginning of the 19th century to the Grisard family, Liège industrialists active in the iron trade and cannon manufacture. It passed to the widow of Servais Grisard, née Jeanne-Hélène-Victoire Grisar, who bequeathed it to her nephew, Pierre Alexandre de Blochouse (1773-1849), the mayor of Otrange. He was married to Marie-Josèphe Magnée de Hornes (de Bommershov). Then came his son, Marcel Alexandre (Liège 1797 - Grammont 1853), who had married Adélaide du Bois of Basècles, who died in Ixelles in 1880 but was buried in Otrange.
On July 20, 1874, the widow Marcel-Alexandre de Blochouse and her children transferred the property by family agreement to Émile Henri Naveau, husband of Louise Demarteau, who died in Otrange in 1907. The château passed by inheritance to Caroline Naveau, daughter of Émile, who married Nicolas Breuls; then to her daughter Juliette Breuls, wife of Knight Georges de Schaetzen; and finally to the latter's son, Knight Jean de Schaetzen van Brienen (died 2007), who married Sabine de Neve de Roden, the current occupant of the castle.

Waroux Castle
Highlight • Castle
The current building is originally medieval as evidenced by the square-base keep and flint ring wall. Waroux is one of the few round Belgian castles.
The Waroux domain is part of the county of Loon and belonged to the Waroux family. Through the marriage in 1525 of Agnes van Warfusée, Lady Waroux with Richard Merode (+1539) it comes to the de Merode family. A memorial stone in the castle dated 1696 is decorated with the arms of the de Clercx family, probably the de Merode Waroux family sold to Michel Clercx during the last decade of the 17th century. The de Clercx family of Waroux sells the castle to Francis Everard de Harzir in 1925. The children sell the castle to doctor Leo Janssis in 1986. The latter sold the castle to the municipality of Ans in January 2005.
